Hi all.... yep.... the police called. It had been dumped in the bush. Slashed tyres and otherwise in good condition. We had put the word out that it was stolen and someone spotted it only four days later. We think it was a local who realized that they couldn't move it without being spotted and that it wasn't worth going on with.
So one $6500 horsefloat back..... still $7000 worth of horse gear and a generator to get back. I reckon it'll turn up soon.
Cheers Royce

Oh, I like the sound of that Nino.......a poke in the eye; with a crowbar!!!
Glad things have taken a turn for the better Royce, although I must say that the float itself was probably the easiest thing to replace out of all the gear knicked. Fingers crossed with the rest of the stuff.

Pleased to hear it Royce. It makes you wonder doesn't it about locals too. Hope you get the rest soon. I am still missing a quad though from nearly two years back. Harder to use and hide a horse float than a quad.

Great News Royce - I guess they heard all these mad 4by drivers were going to be inspecting horse floats and demanding ownership papers!
Hope the rest turns up real soon.

Great to hear,,
Well if the local boys do there job and finger print the float etc,, they should catch the so called low life very easily.
